Chapter 178: Tonic
You haven't seen it yet, in spring, the plateau meadows are full of rhododendrons and spring flowers, blooming like brocade and gorgeous like the sun......" Sha Ling recalled the beautiful scenery he had seen in the past.
"I really want to see it......" Wu Gu was fascinated leisurely.
As night fell, Wu Gu lay on a relatively flat boulder, his hands resting behind his head, staring at the mysterious starry sky. Their home, the secluded residence of the red dust is already quite quiet, however, in the deep mountains, the sound of the wind, the sound of birds, the sound of water, low and low, or cheerful or gloomy or gloomy, these sounds set off another kind of quietness - beyond the red dust, away from the hustle and bustle of the world, trivial troubles are left behind, leisurely looking at the sky and listening to the water, the heart is like a bright platform......
Xiao Jiao ran out of nowhere, his body surged into the air, and his head swayed left and right at Sha Ling, as if he was saying something.
"Oh, okay, let's go see. Sha Ling patted his head, stretched out his hand to pick up Dongdong, who was lying on Xiaojiao's body, and said to Wu Gu: "Xiaojiao just said that he found a cave under the broken wall in front of him, and there are human bones in it, let's go and see it." ”
"Yes. Wu Gu hurriedly got up and followed the crowd, and the broken wall could be seen by going around two bends in front of the river valley.
Standing on the cliff and looking down, it was dark and faint.
"Come up. Sha Ling pulled Wu Gu onto Xiao Jiao's back. Over the years, Xiaojiao has been coaxed by everyone with apples, and he has long been accustomed to the occasional riding behavior of a few senior brothers, and he is not disgusted.
Xiaojiao's huge body swam and plummeted down the cliff for about 500 meters, stopping at the mouth of a man-sized hole. When I arrived at the entrance of the cave, a fishy smell came to my nose.
Sha Ling and Wu Gu Shennian probed in, and were shocked when they saw the situation inside, the cave was quite deep, curved and extended, and the four walls were covered with layers of snakes, these snakes were all black, and there was a shining red line from the forehead to the tail, and the snakes salivated all over the ground. It stinks.
These snakes are called red line scale snakes, highly venomous, the speed is like electricity, and over time it is different, the red line becomes a gold line, and a small bead with a strange fragrance will be produced under the gold line, which can detoxify a hundred poisons. Moreover, the meat of the golden scale snake is delicious. It's our Jiao's favorite ......" Speaking of this, Xiaojiao revealed a bit of cunning and coquettish tone. There are hundreds of red-line scale snakes, and it is not easy to find the golden-line scale snakes in them. The small horned scale armor is hard, but it can't catch the golden-threaded scale snake in the snake kiln, so it must turn to Sha Ling for help.
Sha Ling smiled: "It turns out that you are greedy...... Xiaojiao has been practicing for hundreds of years, and when he was in the underground palace at first, because of the lack of spiritual energy and the lack of food. grew up very slowly, and after arriving at Sha Ling's house, he ate and drank well every day, and the aura tonic was supplemented, and after a few years, he cultivated to make great progress. has been able to communicate divine thoughts in human language like Yao Huang and Wei Zi, instead of relying on thoughts like in winter. When the little horn grows a little more and the vocal organs change, you can really speak.
Listening to what Xiao Jiao said, Sha Ling really remembered that in the demon cultivation method, it was mentioned that there was such a thing as a golden-threaded scale snake in the Jiao tonic food. In that demon cultivation method, the stages of Jiao's cultivation and the elixir tonic were written in great detail. However, the herbs and supplements recorded in the book, Sha Ling had never heard of or seen them, so he couldn't help Xiaojiao find supplements.
Sha Ling read the book and never forgot it, and when Xiaojiao mentioned it, he thought of it, and touched Xiaojiao with some pity: "Xiaojiao is still capable, and he has found supplements by himself." ”
Xiaojiao was praised by Sha Ling, and he was shy and proud. The head was held high, but the body shrunk to the thickness of a hand. wrapped his arms around Sha Ling affectionately, and kept rubbing his head against Sha Ling.
Looking at his demeanor like a cute puppy, Sha Ling and Wu Gu were all amazed.
The little horn was a Jiao, and his body exuded an aura that made those poisonous snakes afraid to surrender, and as soon as he entered the hole, all the snakes up and down, left and right, avoided it at a very fast speed.
The group walked slowly, and the snakes dodged and closed behind them, forming a circular encirclement.
The sound of "hiss" is endless, and it makes people's hearts hair.
Winter clings to Sha Ling's feet, his eyes wide.
Wu Gu is not a timid person, but when he saw the dense pile of snakes entangled and twisted in front of him, his back was also cold, and he kept looking left and right, for fear that one would suddenly fall from the top of his head or be wrapped around his feet. If he could, he really wanted to turn off his mind and be out of sight.
Sha Ling smiled: "Use the talisman." ”
Wu Gu was relieved, and hurriedly opened a protective character, and the transparent aura aura aura was rippling in all directions, condensing into a ball to surround everyone, and the smell between the noses was clear.
With the amulet isolated, there was no longer any need to directly touch the sticky snake saliva on the ground, and the speed of movement of several people was greatly accelerated.
After walking for a short while, the cave tilted downward, and Sha Ling's divine thoughts kept out, but he never found the Golden Scale Snake.
After walking for a while, several people had to stop in front of a big pit, the big pit completely blocked the way, Sha Ling looked at it, the pit was fifty meters deep, like a well, the four walls were almost straight, and countless red line scale snakes swam into the pit like moths to the fire.
I said that the bones of the earth were at the other end of the pit, and there were delicious golden-threaded scale snakes. Little Horn twisted and seemed to spit out the red letter with some impatience.
In the darkness, Sha Ling's eyes seemed to glow with light, and he could clearly see that there was a room-sized space at the end of the pit, where the corpses of human beings were obviously scattered on the ground, and the golden threads behind several golden-threaded scaly snakes were shining.
And in the deepest part of the pit, there are two black beads, and those red-line scale snakes crawl into them just to be able to get close to the black beads.
It's a bit like a carp jumping over the dragon gate, and the red lines closest to the red line of the black bead land have partially turned into gold lines. Those two black beads are also a foreign body, but the evil qi in the whole body is not liked by Sha Ling, and it is a highly poisonous thing, and it is useless for Sha Ling to take it.
"Let's go over and see. As soon as Sha Ling raised his hand, the defensive light ball bounced up, jumped directly into the big pit, and fell into the opponent's stone chamber.
First stretched out his hand and waved a few times in the air, and when he landed, all the golden-threaded scale snakes in the room flew over one by one as if they were bound by some invisible silk, stopped in front of Sha Ling, and tied them into a bunch.
Xiaojiao said happily: "Xie Luxie, I want to roast and eat! I can also eat it in winter." ”
"Okay, I'll do it for you. ”
Scanning the surroundings, this place is indeed the traces of human habitation, simple piles of stone beds, stone chairs, lying on the ground bones have been broken and scattered by the golden line scale snake, carefully identified, it can be seen that it is a man and a woman, the man has a finger bone attached to a large knife, the blade pierced deeply into the stone wall.
